[shrinkwrap-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (SHRINKWRAP-254) Support creation of URLs from a Archive

[Andrew Rubinger (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SHRINKWRAP-254?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12587977#comment-12587977 ] 

Andrew Rubinger commented on SHRINKWRAP-254:
--------------------------------------------

Archives over the wire should use the SerializableView or ZipSerializableView interface.

This issue looks underspecified; what would the URL be?  Protocol?  And what handler would be used?  If this is over the wire, a URL alone isn't enough to reconstitute an Archive; it's just a pointer after all.

> A lot of a external APIs rely on the use of URLs as a means of transferring archives across the wire, it would be useful if a Archive could easily be converted into a URL.
